'Fake news' inquiry asks Facebook to mark for Russian effect in UK
Damian Collins, the seat of the digital, culture, media and sport committee, has written to the Facebook founder after suspicions which Russian "actors" used the platform to interfere in English politics. In a letter to mark Zuckerberg sent on Thursday, Collins wrote which the committee was investigating the phenomenon of fake news. Facebook has told it updated its Programming in January to protect hoax break news from appearing in its "trending topics" section. In April, a proof helping users to spot fake break news was trialled for 3 days. However, efforts to counter fake break news in the UK are lagging behind Germany, France and the Netherlands, where Facebook is working with established media organisations to flag disputed stories in users' newsfeeds.'The Oatmeal' innovator rips Facebook in comic — and Facebook asks if he wants to 'boost' the post
